Red and Gold Holiday Nails featuring Zoya Nail Polish Cherri and Holo Taco Gold Flake Taco

The holiday season can be a busy time of year, so I like to keep my manicures quick and easy while still being festive. One of my favorite ways to dress up any cream nail polish is by adding a glitter top coat. This week I wore a beautiful red and gold combination featuring polishes from Zoya Nail Polish and Holo Taco. Let me show you how I got a holiday look with just two nail polishes!

Some of the products in this post were provided for my unbiased review. This post includes a referral link. All opinions are my own. See my Disclosure Policy for more information.

I began my manicure with Cherri from the Zoya Magical Collection. This is a red cream nail polish that is opaque in two coats. This is a nice Christmas red, as it has blue undertones making it pigmented and bright. You can use any red nail polish in your stash, but if you would like to buy Cherri, you can use my referral link to save $5.00 on your first Zoya purchase.

I then added one coat of Holo Taco Gold Flake Taco. This is a clear base with gold tone metallic flakes. Back in the day, I owned a similar polish from the now defunct line Sephora by OPI. I even wrote an entire blog post about it in 2012 after finding it on sale! I must have decluttered that polish at some point, but really wanted a similar option. I’m really loving Gold Flake Taco! It may not be real gold, but it looks just as stunning.

As you can see, the Gold Flake Taco really dresses up my red nail polish base of Cherri. This manicure is simple to apply, but gives a festive look for the holiday season. Whether you are headed to a Christmas party, or staying cozy at home, your nails will look absolutely fabulous! Plus, I’m excited to try out more combinations using Gold Flake Taco during all seasons of the year.
